4WD Tracks in Southland

Southland delivers some of the most varied 4WD tracks in the country, from windswept beach runs along Oreti and the Catlins coast to remote backcountry roads threading through Fiordland's river valleys and forest. Expect open beaches, tidal flats, and rugged inland terrain. Come prepared for changeable southern weather, soft sand, and long distances between supplies.
